CIA/ DIA Records on the Bradley Manning Support Network


In response to a FOIA request to the Defense Intelligence Agency, the CIA’s Open Source Center has released two reports on the media coverage of the Bradley Manning Support Network. The reports are innocuous in of themselves. One briefly mentions that a member of the Bradley Manning Support Network commented on an Al-Jazeera show on the transfer of Bradley Manning to Fort Leavenworth. The second report contains a comment from a “Martiaan” who called for another commenter to give a shout-out of support to Bradley Manning during a planned disruption.
The value of these documents is in the fact they were referred back to the CIA by the DIA for release. This provides further evidence that the Defense Intelligence Agency is conducting an investigation of some kind into the Bradley Manning Support Network.
